The '''Stone Biome''' is one of four [[Biomes|biomes]] in [[Main Page|Project Rebearth]]. It covers mountainous and rocky regions of the world, where {{Icon|Stone}} is the dominant resource. Settlements in the Stone biome benefit from the highest {{Icon|Stone}} and {{Icon|Ore}} production rates in the game, making it the premier biome for mining, metalworking, and advanced production chains.

== Overview ==
The Stone biome is associated with rocky, mountainous, and arid highland landscapes. {{Icon|Stone}} serves as both the primary resource and the construction material for all buildings in this biome.

=== Construction ===
Buildings in the Stone biome cost {{Icon|Stone}} as their primary resource. For example, a [[Shack]] costs '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=stone}}''' {{Icon|Stone}}, a [[Cabin]] costs '''{{BuildingData|name=house_3|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=stone}}''' {{Icon|Stone}}, and a [[Town Hall]] costs '''{{formatnum:{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=stone}}}}''' {{Icon|Stone}} plus '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}}, '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=tools}}''' {{Icon|Tools}}, and '''{{BuildingData|name=town_hall|data=cost|biome=stone|resource=glass}}''' {{Icon|Glass}}.

=== Housing Upkeep ===
The Stone biome has standard housing upkeep, identical to the [[Wood Biome]]. A [[Shack]] consumes '''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} per day, the same as the [[Wood Biome]], roughly ten times higher than the [[Earth Biome]] ('''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=earth|resource=wood}}'''), and half the rate of the [[Arctic Biome]] ('''{{BuildingData|name=house_1|data=rate|biome=arctic|resource=wood}}'''). {{Icon|Food}} consumption remains the same across all biomes.

=== Resource Production ===
All biomes have different production rates and the table below compares key building output across all. Values in '''bold''' indicate the highest rate for that building in the Stone Biome.

{{Production Rates|highlight=stone}}

The [[Quarry]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=quarry|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=stone}}''' {{Icon|Stone}} per m² per day in the Stone biome, three times the rate in other biomes. The [[Stone Crane]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=stone_crane|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=stone}}''' {{Icon|Stone}} per day, also the highest of any biome. This abundance of {{Icon|Stone}} makes the Stone biome ideal for large-scale construction and trade.

The [[Iron Mine]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=iron_mine|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=ore}}''' {{Icon|Ore}} per day, the highest of any biome and more than double the [[Wood Biome]]'s rate of '''{{BuildingData|name=iron_mine|data=rate|biome=wood|resource=ore}}'''. This makes the Stone biome the premier location for {{Icon|Ore}} extraction and downstream {{Icon|Metal}} and {{Icon|Tools}} production via the [[Refinery]] and [[Tools Workshop]].

The [[Woodcutter]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=woodcutter|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} per day, half the [[Wood Biome]]'s rate of '''{{BuildingData|name=woodcutter|data=rate|biome=wood|resource=wood}}''' but three times the [[Earth Biome]]'s rate of '''{{BuildingData|name=woodcutter|data=rate|biome=earth|resource=wood}}'''. Unlike the Wood biome, the [[Woodcutter]] in the Stone biome does not consume {{Icon|Tools}}.

The [[Foraging Hut]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=foraging_hut|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=food}}''' {{Icon|Food}}, '''{{BuildingData|name=foraging_hut|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}}, and '''{{BuildingData|name=foraging_hut|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=earth}}''' {{Icon|Earth}} per day. The {{Icon|Food}} output is tied with the [[Wood Biome]] for the highest among all biomes.

== Strategy ==
The Stone biome excels at mining and industrial production. The [[Quarry]] and [[Stone Crane]] provide abundant {{Icon|Stone}} for construction and trade, while the [[Iron Mine]] at '''{{BuildingData|name=iron_mine|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=ore}}''' {{Icon|Ore}} per day enables strong {{Icon|Metal}} and {{Icon|Tools}} supply chains. Settlements in the Stone biome are well-positioned to become manufacturing hubs, supplying {{Icon|Tools}} to other biomes through trade.

Housing upkeep is identical to the [[Wood Biome]], with standard {{Icon|Wood}} consumption rates. The [[Woodcutter]] produces a moderate '''{{BuildingData|name=woodcutter|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} per day — sufficient for basic needs but potentially limiting during rapid expansion. The [[Saw]] produces '''{{BuildingData|name=saw|data=rate|resource=wood}}''' {{Icon|Wood}} per day regardless of biome, providing a consistent supplement at the cost of '''{{BuildingData|name=saw|data=rate|resource=tools}}''' {{Icon|Tools}} per day.

The primary weakness of the Stone biome is its low {{Icon|Earth}} production. The [[Claypit]] produces only '''{{BuildingData|name=claypit|data=rate|biome=stone|resource=earth}}''' {{Icon|Earth}} per m² per day compared to '''{{BuildingData|name=claypit|data=rate|biome=earth|resource=earth}}''' in the [[Earth Biome]], making {{Icon|Glass}} production more dependent on trade or large clay pit areas.
